Art Of Hope Poem by Maria Sudibyo

Seed of dandelion, the clover leaf
The meteor shower, the dropp of feather
The crossed fingers, the lucky charm
The bright evenstar, the full rainbow

The offering hand, the small touch
A simple word, a hint of smile
A silent company, constant warmth
A tiny happiness, a little wish

In the spring’s call, in the autumn’s fall
In the summer’s laugh, in the long winter
In the lonely night, in the dawn light
In the darkest hour, in the moment of victory

Water in the desert, fire in the forest
The whispering wind, the beat of earth
The kiss of sun, the canopy of tree
Climbing the cold mountain, running in green meadow

The power to change, the energy to heal
The strength of faith, the freedom of will
The dream journey, undying love
The future seeker, the eternal spirit

In the lack of air, in the edge of despair
In the blinding storm, in the fragile heart
In the strict rule, in the harsh rejection
In the short of time, in the world of lie

Even the world called you crazy
Even you drowned in sand and sea
Even you should walk a thousand miles
Even you face the impossible fight

Don’t give up, don’t ever give up!
